The final Slam of the season sees Iga Swiatek troubleshoot and learn now to extend her dominance, and the coronation of the (not very) long awaited Carlos Alcaraz as a major winner and youngest male #1 in history. As always, we try to be skeptical of hype and take a fresh look at the results and what they might mean for the near future. Also at this US Open: the shambolic choice to have Supreme Court Justice Patrick McEnroe helm the women's doubles presentation, profiteering off Serena's name, and more awful revelations about sexual abuse in women’s tennis.
2:30 Iga Swiatek doesn’t always play her best but proves why she’s the dominant #1
14:40 The women’s draw gets a wonderful crop of quarterfinalists, representative of many of the year’s best
21:45 Are we in the Iga Era? How do we define a deserving number one? What do we want from women's tennis? Who cares! Sit back and watch
24:35 Men’s champ: from barely bleating to curry-ready
35:10 Frances Tiafoe! Not to say I told you so but …
42:50 Listen to Jonathan stretch a subordinate clause far past its breaking point
44:55 Women’s doubles: Krejcikova/Siniakova win the Career Slam; plus, the massive insult of Patrick McEnroe presiding over this trophy ceremony
56:10 TW: SA - Fiona Ferro’s case against her former coach puts another spotlight on abuse and exploitation in women’s tennis
60:55 Et ceteras: bootleg Serena merch, the too-late night matches, and the partisan but only partially engaged US Open crowd
69:25 WTA Finals is moving to … Texas?
73:11 Randomly, our favorite and least favorite types of pasta
